Tank_owl Posted December 27, 2018 Share Posted December 27, 2018 Yes out of sight. However the playoffs are possible but it would need a run the like of the promotion push in the "mind the gap" season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's get a few more positive results and maybe clean sheets and see where we are come beginning of January. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea I remember that season because their first win came against us, everyone was buzzing because they lost their first 5 games then went on a great run after beating us so I think it’s alittle to late for us Edited December 27, 2018 by stocksyuto Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
legendaryswan Posted December 27, 2018 Share Posted December 27, 2018 Lets not get too far ahead of ourselves,weve won two games after 2 whole months of stagnation,to get into the playoffs from here would be some feat,and the transfer window is about to open,we wont be buying during that period,but we do need to offload to stave off another embargo.

Doghouse Daz Posted December 27, 2018 Share Posted December 27, 2018 We're only 9 points off the play offs, but we ain't going to achieve it with 3 shots and 1 on target every match. Need some attacking intent, and a firm hand to guide us through. That's all we can cling to at the moment, and get fully behind the squad, the new manager, and the chairmans quest to rescind the P&S cloud. I've full confidence in the squad to achieve that, and ain't giving up the ghost yet. Current situation just adds a little extra spice to the 2nd half of the season.

Pablo Bonvin Posted December 27, 2018 Share Posted December 27, 2018 Autos definitely no chance. Playoffs? Unlikely I think, but it’s nice to be looking up rather than down as we approach a new year. UTO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogerwyldesmullet Posted December 27, 2018 Share Posted December 27, 2018 (edited) At one level I love the optimism but this is the kind of OP that gets us a bad name as Delusional Prannies. The evidence if needed is as follows: a) Bet 365 says we are 20x more likely to be relegated than promoted ni mind automatics.. b) Ever seen a poor bookie? c) The famous “it’s all sorted after 15 games” thread that prematurely ejaculated with excitement just after we beat Bristol. We never did get to the magic 20 points in time. TBH hate to admit it but main aim for me is “maintain the gap” and to be in the same division as dem blavdes next season. If Leeds stay down, that would be a welcome bonus - but if they go up I suppose at least Just Visiting will pay us less visits!

Owly Mowly Posted December 27, 2018 Share Posted December 27, 2018 I’m usually a positive poster, but do we really think a corner has been turned? A win against 10 man Preston and a gritty 1-0 at Middlesbrough - not sure this points to a run of form just yet. I’d be very happy to finish half way up with the state we are in right now financially. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They lost their first 4 and lost 9 out of the first 16 that year. 4 points more than we have, that 4 would be the difference between 2nd and 3rd/4th more than likely. But if by some miracle we had a run like that and finished 3rd/4th you would have to be confident in the playoffs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neon Nick Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 Auto's are out, but Playoff's are absolutely within reach, pun intended. The entire Division is unstable, even in the top 2-3-4 positions, nothing is stable. We're one match past mid-season, and in a state of flux for sure, but this state of flux has yielded two clean sheets, two wins, and both against Playoff contenders. Nothing has really changed in the way of ammunition, same ammo, different deployment. The Players seem to want to do well for Bullen... Why not give Bullen the job? Just might make a serious run for the Playoff's, since Bullen has assumed command, again, it's been two cleans sheets, two wins against top Clubs, motivated Players, and the Fans in the Stands are chanting happy. Auto's are highly unlikely, but Playoff's are not, 22 League Matches yet to be played. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
